A featherlight premise handled with unexpected tenderness — Yoo Seung-ho's touch-starved recluse and Chae Soo-bin's exhausted impostor turn a sitcom setup into a sweetly melancholy romance about being seen.

## Synopsis

A reclusive investor whose allergy to human contact leaves him covered in hives agrees to host a humanoid robot for field testing. When the prototype short-circuits days before delivery, its creator persuades his ex-girlfriend — the woman the machine was modelled on — to stand in until repairs are finished.
